A 1iltle nlll or aa5 .ooo. GOO?

Senator Stanford brings in bill against
the Government for 500, ,0OO.OOO, which
he declares to the Pacific Railroad Com
mission, should be applied to cancelieg
the debt of the Genital Pacific Road to
the people. lie makes 500, 600, 900 of
this out by charging the Government
with the discount at which the bonds
were placed owing TO the gold PREMIUM
with the interest on this discount added.
Much of the rest is composed of allowances
for transportation which the Government
neither contracted for nor got, but which
Mr.. Stanford claims II ought to pay for
because the company had counted on 1t.
He wants damages for the Sinking Fund
law also.
Mr. Stanford asserts that in aiding in
the construction of the Northern Pacific
and certain other roads the Government
wronged the Central Pacific by diverting
traffic from it. This Is curious plea to
put in by one ef the builders of the South
ern Pacific, which Injuries the Central
Pacific more than any other road. just

responsible to the company for the prem

tor Stanford bill, how does it dispose OF
the charges of corruption2 And If the
property has been so prosecuted by the
Government, where do Stanford's, Hun

A very interesting phasa of the present
situation is the fact that President Stan

sits in the United States Senate TO advo-

HOW She Keeps Her waist Down.

A writer in the LoddoR Lady gives
the following simple plan by which all

Smart Trick of vienna sIininers.

Vienna has long been notoriously one of
the dearest cities in Europe to live in, and
the milliners of the Donaustadt have made
up their minds that they, at least, will do
nothing likely to make it cheaper The
cheap MANILA hats that are to be bought in
London shops for few pence are very
popular just now among the Viennese
ladies-largely, no doubt, because they re-
quire but little trimming, and arc indeed
most "lkilling' when most modestly
adorned. Naturally, the milliners are an
noyed ut this singular preference for the
cheap and becoming, and they have had a
meeting to consider what ought to be
done. 1t was decided to try to bring the
''penny hats" into contempt, and day or
two later q large number of scavengers
and crossing sweepers made their appear
ance wearing the detested manillas. Vienna
has had good laugh at the cleverness Of
the millincrs, but whether their strategy
will have thc desired effect remains to he
seen.-St. James Gazette.

Wisdom from Beecher.

Every farm should have a good far
mer.
The man never had good luck who has
bad wife.
The masses against the classes the world
over.
A man who does not love praise is not
full man.
A man must ask leave of his stomach
to be happy man.
II takes longer for man to find out
man than any other creature that is
made.
Flowers are the Sweetest things that
God ever made and forgot to put soul
into.
A man without self-rcstrai4t is like
barrel without hoops, and tuinbles to
pieces.
Whoever makes home secm TO the
young dearer and happy, is a public
benefactor.
That cannot be a healthy condition in
which few prosper and the great mass
are drudges.
proud man is seldom grateful man,
for he never thinks he gets as much as he
deserves.
The greatest event in a hens life is
made up of an egg and cackle. But
eagles never cacKle.
One of the original tendencies of the
human mind, fundamental and universal,
is the love of other peoples private af-
fairs.

Men who live MS fast as they do on the
board and in Wall street break down.
They don't wear out in the slow, natural
way other men do. The death of Woeris-
hotter in the very prime of life, of Charley
Osborne, of Joseph Armour, of Jim Love,
the sudden striking down of Adams on the
board of trade, the very recent death of
Vice President Hill on the floor of the
New York Stock Exchange all testify to
the danger in the reckless speed that spec
ulators live. Theirs looks like an easier
life, with its short hours, its plenty of
leisure and its ample returns, than it is.-

The Cotton Trade

MANCHESTER une 29.--The Guardian s
commercial article says: Business, yes
terday. was light, despite the lessened
productions. Altogether the days ex-
perience encourages perseverance in the
short time movement, which is spread
ing. The sIackness of demand for
yarns for home consumption indicates
that the current supply is abundant.
Offers for India staples do not improve.
Native dealers are less inclined to pur-
chase than last week, even at low rates.
For minor foreign markets there is
some demand, but it does not incre ese.
The efforts of producers to get better
prices in consequence Of the advance in
cotton succeed but poorly, although
yesterdays business indicated an in
crease in spirit and endurance. Bundled
var" or Japan is in slightly improved
deman and there have been a few
purchases for China. For India and
other foreign markets the inquiry is
poor.

market is in a very peculiar position,
due wholly to manipulation both here

situation is that there is no excitement.

Last evening the ruling price was 92H,
and up to noon 99c. was reached, with
very little trading. July sold off q
trifle, while later months show slight
gau. Speculation, generally speaking,
is very moderate.

dream OF her;
Whom she is near, o sweet and tender calm
Falls softly on my heart with soothing
Like the murmured sound Of an ANGELS
psalm
Pleading for man.
She 10 my life, II love is life's author,
Guardian and friend.
Guiding my feet from tho pitfalls Of woe
Fer to the end.
When she Is far, my heart is sore oppressed,
And sadly beats against my weary breast,
Like prisoned bird that seeks its distant
nest
With restless wing.
She is my soul. II from the soul there leaps
That holy fire
That scorches ut its birth the poisoned
OF base desire
She lights me, as OF old, DER desert sand,
And Turing wales OF sense was lit that band
That followed Moses TO the promised land
OF rest and peace.
All! wife OF mine, my wife, my soul, my all,
Be ever nearl
May chilling shadow OF thy loss ne'er fall
Upon me here;
But down the opening aisles OF future years
BE by my side to quell the rising tears
That flow from hidden springs OF doubts
aud fears
Within my breast.
